Late Fakirs’ songs are stories of shared human experience – sometimes confessional, sometimes humorous or edgy – with images that connect us emotionally in a conversation. Metaphor has the power to teach both of us – writer and listener – something about ourselves and maybe each other. Performance of the song is just the start of the conversation – ideally we have the rest of our lives to see where it takes us. So long as we’re talking, you and I, we’re still alive. Greg Shields, 2019

Late Fakirs is a loose affiliation of friends from widely different places on the musical map who got together to see what would happen when we collaborated on some tunes.
